Who is Savage Classical Guitar?

Savage Classical Guitar is now confirmed as the largest classical guitar dealer and gallery in the world, regardless of other’s claims. Our unique and 2500 sq. ft. spacious classical guitar shop is located on the South Shore of Long Island, NY, where we take pride in offering an array of 200+ concert instruments that goes above and beyond even the most discerning ear.

Over the last 2 decades, we have developed our stellar reputation and passion for curating outstanding work from the finest luthiers around the world. We have made it our purpose to find guitars of unprecedented quality and sound, bringing them together under one roof. It is because of this, our extreme attention to detail and quality, that we only offer guitar showings on a by-appointment basis. This ensures that we are giving you the time, attention and space needed to discover a guitar that will change your relationship with music.

Through this process and the unique classical guitar store we have built, we believe that we have crafted a unique experience for artists, collectors and hobbyists to find a new voice.

We believe in one simple principle: You do not choose the right guitar. The right guitar chooses you.

The crisis regarding Covid-19 is clearly affecting all of us, in one form or another. My wife is the Through Put administrator for Stony Brook University, our major Trauma Center for Suffolk County Long Island. She sees, day to day, what most of us are only hearing about. The need for separation, social distancing and intelligent behavior has to be recognized by all of us. Clean protocols need to be in effect, as they are here in my gallery at all times.

My point here, is at least three-fold, in that we are always practicing clean protocols, wiping guitars, cases, boxes and packaging down with virus killing disinfectant. The gallery is spotless as well. I sustain inspection and cleaning on every single one of our 275 instruments here every 3 months. We began our cycle in early March of this year, where we have completed this process, looking to cycle up again asap.

We are OPEN for business, where Ryan and I are working limited hours of late, for necessary reasons, but I am available to you most anytime of the day via my phone/text and email, 631-335-5447 and rich@savageclassical.com – We are committed to sustaining our community with the beauty of music, the pure safe haven of joy regarding the instrument we all love and cherish, and the people that support our great society. Be well, be safe, be smart and know that I am always here to listen and provide you with this wonderful outlet of creating music.
